When the ports phys are connected to the switches internal MDIO bus,
we need to connect the phy to the slave netdev, otherwise
auto-negotiation etc, does not work.

Hi Florian

Is this the right fix?

What i found is that ports on mv88E6171 we coming up as 10/half.  If i
forced a renegotiation with ethtool -r lan0, the phy would then goto
1000/full.

The code for phys on internal switch MDIO buses never connect the phy
to the device, only phys listed in DT get connected via
of_phy_connect(). By connecting the phy, the state machine is active
and does an autoneg when the slave interface is opened.

This looks fine to me, I think we might want to revisit/nuke the code at
the end of dsa_slave_create since it:

- is racy: netif_carrier_off() is called before register_netdev()
- is double racy: we should be bound to a PHY before calling
register_netdev() otherwise there could be MDIO accesses done to that
PHY without an actual PHY being registered
